Why this procedure was chosen
Bespoke vehicle arrangements will provide an ergonomic, fast, efficient and effective method of entering the service tunnel; ultimately to save life and prevent further harm. It is proposed to replace the current hatchback style vehicle with a bespoke utility vehicle. The current arrangement is the use of small hatchback style vehicles which are unsuited, not ergonomic and have limited versatility for BAU and the firearms response platform.
